Breaking one of his own rules dragging him into something far deeper than he would like. It's already happened once before. Didn't turn out well.
Weaknesses:
Women. Doesn't matter how, when, or where, they will turn up, and they are always bound to be followed by trouble. And they always turn up eventually. Temper. Go against his rules or disrespect his car and you can be sure to expect him in the near future in a situation you might have not preferred. Just follow his rules.
Strengths:
Nerves of steel and a strong dedication. If you want something done, Frank's the man for the job. His driving skills aren't lacking much either. Not that he uses those skills for anything like pinks, but you won't see many police cruisers following his manuevers.
Abilities:
Highly skilled driver with just right type of mindset for carrying out jobs most others would turn away from. Excellent martial artist. Perfect for those times when things happen to go south. Not to mention he is quite an accomplished sharpshooter. Also a lady pleaser, but this tends to have more negatives than positives really. That last one isn't really by choice either.
Hobbies:
Fishing, following his routines, keeping to himself in down time, maintaining his vehicles
Appearance:
Frank is 5'9" weighing in at about 176 lbs. He barely has much hair left, its shaved down pretty low, much of it balding actually. However it does distinguish him. He's definitely stocky with good muscle tone and even though he isn't that tall, he gives that look and presence that makes you sometimes second guess yourself when attempting to confront him.
Personality:
Frank is the quiet type, mostly keeping to himself. After all, him being so quiet is what has given him such a reputation. Because after all, he won't nor does he want to become personally aquainted with anyone. Hence rule #2, no names. He also always has a calm demeanor to himself at all times. It's hard to get him to crack. Deep down he is a caring individual, but on the exterior you'll really only see the cold hearted man with the intent of finishing his job no matter what. He's also very persistent with his rules. He follows his rules religiously and expects all of his clients to do the same. Screw with Frank and it may end up being the last thing you do. He takes nothing that he does lightly.
Character History:
Frank Martin is a former Special Forces operative who was a team leader of a search and destroy unit. His military background includes operations "in and out of" Lebanon, Syria and Sudan. He retires from this after becoming fatigued and disenchanted with his superior officers. In simple terms, he got tired of seeing his best efforts turned to nothing by the same people paying him to do the job. So he puts his skills to action as a private driver for hire.
He had gained quite a reputation in his secondary line of work. This also gained the suspicion of the French police where he had been residing for quite some time. Throughout the time of being a private driver he has always had some simple rules to his jobs.
His rules are:
1."No new deals, when it's a deal, it's a deal"
2."No names"
3."Never open the package"
4."Never make a promise you can't keep"
On top of these four rules there are also the rules of the car. Rules of the car:
1."Respect a man's car, and the man will respect you"
2."Greet the Man"
3."Seat belt"
4."Never drink coffee on the car"
Frank has since done a number of jobs in several different countries. His reputation has continued to grow, sometimes not for the better. As with such reputations comes some enemies. Though Frank will blame himself for this since he ended up breaking one of his own rules in the past. Never open the package. Though this event was

RP Sample
Everything had been quiet for quite some time. There weren't any jobs for Frank as of yet, at least nothing too noteworthy. Lately he had actually turned a few down feeling that they were too inadequate for his level of expertise. Not that he knew much about the jobs, but lately the few that have come to him with jobs didn't to appear to know much about it themselves. He was about to start doing runs for those who appeared to be so incompetent.
So for now he would relax because he knew the right job would come crawling for him sooner or later. It was only ever a matter of time. It was nice Sunday afternoon and the weather couldn't be better outside. Not a day Frank would pass up so willingly. He spent an hour cleaning up the finer details of his car. He never gave up a chance to maintain his car's appearance. After all, his car was not only one of his prized possessions but also in a sense his business partner.
After cleaning the A8 out he figured a couple hours on the pier would suffice the day nicely. Maybe try and reel in a couple fish. Sadly his luck never did much for him when it came to fishing. Sure he could drive a car better than most he knew, but that expertise did nothing for the fish. He climbed in the front seat of the car and took a slow deep breath. Starting it he drove off towards the pier. And that's when his phone rang...
